Drove out to Indiana yesterday to drive semis now that I have my CDL and found a job but I started thinking that I don't really know of good sources to get VT stuff online (besides TKP store) since I've always lived near the Tech bookstores in my 5 years of being an adult or getting free stuff for being a MV.
Bonus points for advice on post college life, like how to get some semblance of a social life outside of work?

Campus Emporium (support small Blacksburg business!) always has good stuff, but you do have to pay shipping. I've also bought a lot of stuff off fanatics.com.
Join a coed kickball league.
I didn't know this was a thing, but I'm really glad it is. Hopefully they'll have one where I'm going I and have a schedule that'll allow me to do it.
I only use the two places above and have never been disappointed!
Since you're in Indiana, you might find the trip down the road to Notre Dame close enough to get in a quick football fix this year. We live just across the river in Louisville and plan on using the opportunity to check out the campus.
I had plans to go before I got the job for a bunch of different reasons. One of which is I spend 10ish years of my childhood in NW Indiana 2.5 hours away from where my job is located and grew a hatred for Notre Dame. I don't want to talk about how many rants I heard about how they get disrespected because they weren't in a conference. I always responded saying that should join one which sort of happened in the worst way possible. It was a sad moment when I heard Notre Dame would be part of the ACC, although it does gives me a chance at my childhood dream of seeing VT beat them in football.
I second campus emporium. They always have legit merchandise that you can't find anywhere else.
After college advice: Go to local bars and challenge the dominant males to duels (sword, powder loaded flintlock pistols, etc) and upon your victory you shall legally own all the females in that territory. Great way to make a splash in a new town.
Huh, and here I thought that if I pee'd on everything it was automatically mine. Schooling taught me nothing.
That's still an acceptable claim of title on a property or vehicle in most of the southeastern US. I'm not sure about Indiana.
Or you can do what I did. Move to Charlottesville, and just let the football team take over the town.
Campus emporium is nice. Also alumni hall has a good selection.
Anyone know where I can get a black pro-combat shirt a la the Boise game?
